Hello,
I've made new kernel and root filesystem, made all changes needed to linuxrc, new cloop module, customized miniroot fs, and while
insmod -f /modules/cloop.o file=/cdrom/boot_fs/boot_fs
(while boot_fs being the compressed filesystem)
I get:
cloop: Initializing cloop v1.08
cloop: /cdrom/boot_fs/boot_fs: 2860 blocks, 65536 bytes/block, largest block is 1093697120 bytes.
cloop: out of memory for compressed buffer 1093697120
Any ideas? It seems that with original knoppix kernel same boot_fs works just fine.
Regards,
Robert

Well, I seem to resolved the problem, compressing same filesystem one more time helped, although I have no idea why it wouldnt work with old compression (parameters for mkisofs and filesystem was the same).

Hello,
when I try to mount the compressed KNOPPIX image with cloop, I get the following error (taken from syslog):
The command I use is: insmod cloop file=/mnt/hdf1/wolf/KNOPPIX
Jul 30 11:39:20 box kernel: cloop: Welcome to cloop v0.68
Jul 30 11:39:20 box kernel: cloop: /mnt/hdf1/wolf/KNOPPIX: 29299 blocks, 65536 bytes/block, largest block is 4294808060 bytes.
Jul 30 11:39:20 box kernel: cloop: out of memory for compressed buffer 4294808060
Could you please detail the commands you entered to solve the problem ?
Thanks for your help.

You need the newest cloop --1.0-2 from the sources link on the knoppix english page -- then it will work. I found this out the hard way.

Thanks. I could compile the cloop module, mount the KNOPPIX image. now when I try to copy the files to my work directory, it starts copying and then the process hangs in the middle. I can't even kill the process.
Any idea on how to solve this ?
Cheers.
